A few days later I was out & about and noticed the tummy rumbling again. I saw a taco bell without a line, so I pulled in hoping that this burrito might fix that part of me the other taco bell broke. This time it was actually fast, but we really got to talk about the food part now...
Five layer burrito. Thats: beef, cheese, cheese sauce, beans, and sour cream all wrapped up in a flour tortilla. It's a pretty simple concept, folks, and going off of the menu and item description I thought I knew what I was signing up for. Boy was I wrong.
You ever been cleaning the outside of your windows and the wind blows some cleaner in your mouth? That what that tortilla tasted like.
So I call up my buddy, a real fat piece of shit. You know the types. I call him up and and go "hey, Charlie. Finally tried this taco bell but it tastes like window cleaner, what going on here? Are they trying to poison me or somethin?"
Charlie just goes "hahaha, no man, noo. That's probably just the preservatives like xorbathomagnate phospherclousitite and other preservatives they put in it to help keep it fresh.
"Fresh!? Look Charlie, I know you know I travel a lot for my work. I've been to El Paso. I've had fresh tortillas! I KNOW WHAT A FRESH TORTILLA TASTES LIKE! These, these aren't fresh charlie. Magphososphate Glucosimizer!? That ain't one of the five layers, Charlie, & sure doesn't sound like any food I've ever heard."
"Wel, idk what to tell you, Jerry. We've been using stuff like sodium nitrite to presve foods for a long time"
"SODIUM NIRTIE! Two kids at my niece's school bought that stuff off of Amazon and killed themselves with it, and they're putting that IN OUR FOOD!?!? Holy cow!"
No wonder people can't eat this stuff without a packet of hot sauce on it. Apparently buying off your taste buds is the only way to make it palatable.

Well, the deal is that because of how the interaction of taste and smell. The cabin is pumped in with filtered, climate controlled air and it's under super pressure to keep the big metal bird from exploding.

Airline food tastes overly overly overly seasoned on the ground then it does when you're flying.

How do I know this? I work in the wild, wild, wild world of Airline Catering at a major international airport that is a hub for a major international airline.

So if you got any questions, I'll try to answer them in the next hour.
